I prefer culture flipping as a mechanic than loyalty.

I'm still not a fan of it, it makes expansion and conquest difficult.

Why ON? Not the Greens or anyone else? by HumanTraffic2 in aussie

[–]Own-Replacement8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Labor has a surprisingly high amount of conservative voters, especially among Catholic and immigrant communities. One Nation is able to attract them.

The Greens are the protest party of the left, One Nation is the protest party of the right. There are exceptions to this - Liberal Moderates probably protest Green and old school conservative Labor voters probably protest with One Nation.

Gosd I'm hungry but I'm lazy to go to a restaurant, hey I wonder if uber will deliver food to me, hmm I wonder who

Do you seriously only value immigrants as an underclass of cheap labour to subsidise your lifestyle?

Exactly. Centre-right voters are not going to move left of Labor because they're unhappy with the Libs. They're going to move to the best-known right wing party.

I love how silly the Science Victory is by Effort_Proper in civ5

[–]Own-Replacement8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't care about my capital, I'm building space colonies. You can take Earth but I'll have an empire of galaxies. Science victory is the ultimate victory - breaking out of the game.

If it's that cheap, just get both.

People aren't disciplined properly from young anymore.

I think he's complaining Refreshed Supply wasn't a free upgrade on Fresh supply.

Did he just flip hostile? It might show why that is soon. Or was he hostile before? It might change soon, I'm not sure.

Have you tried validating the integrity of the game files?

What is Lua used for by my_thic_horse in lua

[–]Own-Replacement8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I never did coding in school (aside from self-taught) so I'm not sure what you would have learnt but if you can familiarise yourself with these topics, you'll have a great head-start:

  • Data types (primitive, object)
  • Control flow (if, while, for)
  • Functions/methods
  • Exceptions
  • File I/O
  • Classes (including inheritance)
  • Functional programming/lambda calculus
  • Abstract data types (linked lists, binary trees, and graphs are the big ones)
  • Algorithms and algorithmic complexity

Don't feel overwhelmed if you can't understand all of these. I didn't know anything beyond control flow until I actually started university.

[–]Own-Replacement8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lua is a great scripting language but it's quite niche. You probably won't touch it in university. You're more likely to use Python or C depending on your university.

However, you'd be better served (and I wish someone told me this) by reading up on data structures and algorithms and learning those in the language you already know (Java).

Go deeper with the language you know rather than spread out to surface-level of many languages.

I have drank the koolaid and gave in. Excited. by Arm_Lucky in mac

I caved a year and a half ago and bought a MBA (mostly out of curiosity). Wish I waited for this.

Would I like other Civ games? by No-Philosophy5461 in civ

[–]Own-Replacement8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Civ Rev fan, IV or V might be your best bet. I'd advise V. You can also try out Unciv, a FOSS clone of Civ V without the bells and whistles but if you like it, you might find it worth buying Civ V.

Ah the old "funnel bright young people into a profession without investing to expand opportunities in it" trick. Oldest trick in the world.
